YESTERDAY, THE GOVERNMENT announced a proposal that would remove religion as a criteria in a school’s admissions process, meaning schools can’t refuse applicants if they aren’t of the same religion as that school’s.

The measure would mostly affect schools with a Roman Catholic ethos, which make up 90% of all primary schools in the country.
